Chapter 15 – Together

Mulder and Scully decided to call it a night after Libby's death. They called in the local police to take care of the crime scene. They had found nothing of interest. Another unsolved case.

"That makes nine," Mulder said on the way to the hotel.

"Yeah," Scully said, not really thinking about what he had said. As much as she was concerned about the case, her mind constantly wandered to Mulder. She couldn't stop think about him even though they had shared only a single kiss, but she wondered if he was the same. Mulder pulled the car to a stop in front of the hotel. He let her in the room first and pulled the door shut and locked the dead bolt. She had gone to the bathroom to change so he shed his jacket and loosened his tie. The he plopped down on her bed and switched on the TV. Scully came out in her loose silk pajamas and lied down beside him, putting her arm over his chest. He smiled and looked down at her. He couldn't have asked for more at that very moment. Although he was sure he could've gotten more. He just didn't want to do that. Not to Scully. Not unless she started it.

'Why are you always like that?' he thought to himself. 'Why do you think everything's okay then sex instantly makes it better?'

But he had to admit he wanted it. He didn't know that she did too. She looked up at him and smiled back. The she leaned in to kiss him. He hadn't expected it, but she didn't let go this time so he deepened the kiss. He could tell she wanted more, but she suddenly stopped.

"What?" Mulder asked, smiling slightly.

"Nothing," she said. She pulled his tie of and threw it to the ground. She began to unbutton his shirt, but he grabbed her hands.

"You don't want to do that," he said.

"And why not?" She smiled.

"Because once you get me started I won't stop." He was completely serious now. He didn't want to get Scully into a situation she didn't want to be in. He cared too much about her for that. She just smiled and kept going. He let go of her hands. She finished unbuttoning and he sat up as she pulled off his shirt. She got up and turned off the light while he put the TV on mute. He was sitting up against the headboard when she came back so she climbed onto the bed and sat straddling his legs. He smiled while unbuttoning her top. As he pulled that off she leaned in to kiss him. They slid down and he held her close as he rolled onto his back. She knew she could never live without him, and she hoped he felt the same.

A/N: I hope that wasn't too kinky for y'all. LOL...I highly doubt it. Silly readers. Well anyway...you know what I want. I'll write more as soon as I can.
